Hi, Everyone, This is a good movie for anyone who likes old cars and fast girls. The police drove Nashes. Dorothy Malone looked great. John Ireland does a good job being the quiet, likable kidnapper type.
Snub Pollard from the Laurel and Hardy days is here in a small role. Look for his mustache.
A fill up of gasoline and a check of the oil comes to $4 at full service. That seemed a little high, but it was a name brand station.
The plot is your basic girl/race car driver being kidnapped by the only young guy in town. This is after she is hit on by the local truck driver/detective wannabe senior citizen who remains unconscious for most of the film.
This was probably an excellent movie for a rainy night at the drive-in theater. This film has some nice moments.
If you like John Ireland, watch Red River for one of his earlier roles. Dorothy Malone did a movie I enjoyed called The Last Voyage.
